US-Israel War on Iran Enters Fifth Week, Markets Reel

US and Israeli forces have struck Iranian nuclear sites, steel plants, and a heavy water complex as the month-long war intensifies, with rescue workers pulling survivors from missile-hit buildings in south Tehran. Secretary of State Rubio has warned the conflict could stretch for weeks, sending oil to $114 a barrel and Wall Street to its lowest close in over six months. The Iranian Red Crescent reports more than 92,600 civilian units damaged across the country, while the Houthis warn their "fingers are on the trigger" for direct military intervention.
